§ MR. MORTON (Sutherland)I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland whether any arrangements have yet been made to lengthen and improve the pier at Embo, Sutherland, so that the fishermen may carry on their business with safety; and, if not, will he take steps to have the works carried out which are necessary and have been long asked for.
§ MR. SINCLAIRThe Congested Districts Board do not feel that the increase of the fishing industry that was anticipated when it was first decided to make a pier at Embo has resulted from that work. The Board, therefore, held that they are not justified by experience in spending further public money on this pier.
